Photo's from our vacation in DC as promised.

I'm a little slow these days, sorry about that! There is just so much going on trying to get Cay ready for her Senior year and making sure that she has all the classes necessary so she does in fact graduate Distinguished, *laf* they messed it up and she said "There is no way I put myself through an extra year of SPANISH for NOTHING!!!" So we had to fix that!! Ahhhh aren't teenagers so much fun!!!?

So anyway here are the pictures!



Here was the Capital Building, we got to go on a tour with our Congressman's aide for a vip tour it was really cool, I have some really great pictures from inside the capital but it would take up pages and pages, so I'm just sharing a few...



This was one of the 10 or so fireworks pictures that came out really well, we were sitting on the mall all day to get a good seat for the fireworks, and you don't even want to know the story about the a@@hole who kept standing in front of all of us that had been sitting there waiting...Oh my was it funny...Cayla even taped some of it, accidentally of course because I started yelling!! Totally out of character for me and those of you that know me, surely can attest to that.



This is my baby in front okay well way in front of the White House, because there were a lot of crazy a$$ people right up there close, even one crazy old man doing his own protest...



This was at the Smithsonian, where you could pretend to be the president giving a speech. I thought it was kinda ...well she thought it was cool...



Here is the photo that Cayla just had to have us take, she wanted to look like an ant up against the Washington Monument. It actually turned out pretty good, it would have been better if those two people would have moved, but I guess they didn't get hint from all of my throat clearing!! *LOL*



I had heard about this place so I had to go eat there! It was great!! They have great burgers and potato skins!! Cayla and I shared and we couldn't finish it..



Just another cool picture of fireworks...If you ever get a chance to go to DC try to go during the 4th of July it was just so amazing, It really made me so proud to be an American...I mean I am proud to be an American normally and Damn proud to be a Texan!! But there is just something that happened when we were there it just seemed to give me this sense of having this overwhelming pride in my Country!



What can I say about this..This place was just totally amazing in a somber sort of way...It was sad because there were stones as far as your eye could see. We are so thankful for all of our men and women that have fought for our Country and all of the freedoms that we hold dear.
